EXCLUSIVE: Leaked email shows Project Veritas begging donors tostay after removing James O’Keefe
“We hope that you might continue to give us a chance,” the emailpleads with donors. “We can’t stress how separate the board’srole is from daily operations here at PV. We are still grindingand pursuing stories of great public importance.”
It's funny because OKeefe was the face of the organization and its chief fundraiser. He made himself functionally indispensable.
The Board maneuvered into the position where they could gang up on him and fire him over a petty personality conflict with one of them, and since he is either bad at corporate politics, or he simply ignored it and didn't care, they successfully orchestrated a coup, thinking that would mean they'd take the company away from him.
Except he was the face of the company and indispensable, so even though they COULD, on paper, stage their little coup, they should have known that it would destroy the company. OKeefe was smart in that at least.
This isn't really about Politics, it's just about corporate politics, and people hate the idea of sniveling corpo drones engaging in backbiting maneuvering to steal people's companies away from them.
I hope Veritas implodes and he sets up a new Veritas and steals all his loyal employees away, leaving the coup orchestrators sitting in a ruin.
Sounds like a hong kong triad movie plot lol.
Goddamned right!
